CRUDE-OIL BURNER.

Specification of Letters Patent.

Patented Aug. 10, 1915.

Application med December 18, 1914. Serial No. 877,555.

To (1H 'w71 om 'it may concern lie it known that 1, JosnrH S. PATRICK, acitizen of the United States, residing at Oklahoma city. in the countyof Oklahoma, State of Oklahoma. have invented certain new and usefulImprovements in Crude-Oil Burners; and 1 do hereby declare the followingto be a full` clear, and exact description of the invention, such aswill enable others skilled in the art to which it appertaius to make anduse the same.

'lhis invention relates to improvements in oil burners.

One object of the invention is to provide au oil burner which is simplein construction and effective in use.

Another object is to provide an oil burner of such construction that theflame will be greatly diffused.

Another object is to provide an oil burner which will attain great heatand retain the same.

Other objects and advantages will be apparent from the followingdescription when taken in connection with the accompanying drawings.

In the drawings: Figure 1 is an elevation of my burner, Fig. 2 is a topplan view, Fig. 3 is a transverse section on the line 3-3 of I ig. 2,and Fig. 4 is an enlarged fragmentn ry plan view of one edge of thelower concave disk.

Referring particularly to the accompanying drawings, represents a ring,the periphery of which is transversely eoncavoconvex to provide acircumferential drip pan or trough 11. Disposed over the open renter ofthe ring is an upwardly bowed concave-convex disk l2, the periphery ofwhich is provided with a plurality of lugs 18 eut away as at 14 to passthrough the opening of the ring and rest thereon. Disposed above thedisk 12 is a second disk 15, the same being also concavo-convex andproperly spaced above the disk 12 to provide a generating space orchamber 16. The periphery of the disk 15 has .formed therein acircumfereutially extending angular cutaway portion 17 which conforms tothe peripheral edge of the disk 12 and is spaced therefrom to providethe gas outlet channel 18 which extends completely around the device.Mounted on the upper edge of the drip pan or trough l1 are a pluralityof vcrtically extending lugs 19, the upper portions of which are formedwith transverse concaved seats 20 in which is supported a ring21. Aplurality of spheres 22 of {ireclay or other fire resisting substanceare disposed over the space between the ring 21 and the periphery of thedisk 15, and resting on Said ring and disk. These spheres are of suchsize that they touch throughout the whole series around the burner. Inthe center of the disk 15 is an opening through which oil is introducedthrough the generating chamber 16, the same being converted into gas andissuing through the channel 18 where it burns over the drip pan. Theflame of the gas will be diii'used by the fireclay spheres, and byreason of the said spheres an intensely hot flame will be produced.

What is claimedis:

A burner comprising a ring` having a circumferential trough at the outeredge thereof, a burner disk supported above the ring, vertical lugscarried by the outer edge of the ring. a second ring supported on thelugs, and a circular series of tire-resisting spheres resting on thesecond-named ring on the edge of the burner disk.

1n testimony whereof, I aiiix my signature, in the presence of twowitnesses.
